Editorial:
Big Blue Slams Its Fans; Are Yanks, Mets, Jets Next?...Professional sports are fun, and there are many loyal fans. The fans stand by their teams, win or lose
- shelling out hundreds of dollars to see a game, buy shirts and mugs. The fans overlook the millions of dollars being paid to the players and the profits of the owners. The little guy even pays the taxes and builds the stadiums for the big guys. Special income tax laws also help out the big guys in professional sports. So, it’s no wonder that season ticket holders of the Giants are miffed. Most Americans would be more than a little miffed, too, at the rich grabbing $1,000 to $20,000 more of their hard-earned cash.

Reform Thought: The state must make a concerted effort to ensure that shared services grants to
counties and towns result in real savings for taxpayers and not just shared services
